Our gym is ran by four main volunteers, two who are Level 2 Qualified Boxing Coaches myself (Marvin Greaves) and Marc Jackson, a Level 1 Qualified Boxing Coach Bakht Taj and a qualified Personal training Michael Chung. Our gym is a multicultural gym with a real family ethos amongst all that train with us, and where respect, self-discipline and hard work are paramount and at the heart of all we do.
**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)**
We work with the general public and support many families, children and young adults that have needed support with variety of difficulties. These include bullying on range of levels, self-harm, anger issues, changes within the home, extreme confidence issues, educational difficulties, living a life of crime, being on probation and being related to gangs.
Many of the children and young people we have worked with have benefited positively from being part of the boxing and fitness sessions we run. We help children work through issues and become confident, expressive and healthier young people, with a clear understanding of the importance of self-discipline and talking to others to share difficulties and concerns. Many young people have improved school grades and now lead a happier school life, their levels of commitment and enthusiasm overall have risen and home life is less tense and communication is better
Attached is a table of the different sessions we provide to individuals, schools and other groups within the community and some photographs of the different sessions, awards and work we do to enhance your knowledge of Team Greaves ABC and what we stand for within our community.

We have made links with Action Together in Oldham to help us with grants and funding opportunities.
You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about:
- policy on grantmaking;

We were awarded funding from The National Lottery for a project called Team Greaves – Gloves Up Knives Down. This was a project offering boxing and fitness training and anger management to young people who have recently been associated or convicted or victims of knife crime.
We have some of our affiliated senior boxers that support in the gym and work with the younger groups alongside the qualified coaches and this group as continued to grow.
Some of our previous boxers have also set up their own exercise and boxing groups within the community and have been bringing new groups of young people to Team Greaves to further build links in the community and develop skills, through joint sessions.
The contribution by volunteers is time. Giving help and support during group sessions including setting up equipment, warm ups and cools downs and supporting small groups. As well as being positive role models and someone to talk to and share a problem.
